The Shake Up convened in the studio with famed
Detroit rock producer Jim Diamond (The White Stripes, Dirtbombs, Von
Bondies) to record their debut release. 15 tracks were smashed out and
taken on 2" tape to John Agnello (Dinosaur Jr, Sonic Youth, The Hold
Steady) in New Jersey to provide the finishing touches with his deft mixing
ability. The first taste is the 'Makes Me Sick' EP/single 4 tales of inner city
life that range from full on punk bursts (Not talking for me), to the anthemic (Makes me sick, Crawling all around).
